Treasury and Finance Minister Mehmet Şimşek said: “A total of $266.9 billion in direct investment flows were achieved between June 2003 and 2024.”
Şimşek shared the direct investment data on his social media account.
Referring to Turkey’s share in global direct investment, Şimşek said: “Globally, major companies prefer our country to invest in electric vehicles, batteries and logistics, and a total of $266.9 billion in direct investment flows were achieved between June 2003 and 2024.”
Şimşek drew attention to the fact that Turkey’s share of global direct investments, which was 0.2 percent before 2003, increased to 0.9 percent in the 2003-2023 period and pointed out the following:
“Our goal in our international direct investment strategy is to increase this rate to 1.5 percent by 2028, and with the dual transformation of our program and high value-added production policies, we will transform our country into a larger production base and increase our growth potential and the welfare of our citizens.”
